Creating a flavorful Creamy Chicken and Pasta is simple. Follow these easy steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the penne pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté the Chicken: While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced chicken, season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, then cook until browned and cooked through, approximately 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
3. Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
4. Add Cream: Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream, allowing it to mix thoroughly with the broth.
5. Mix in Cheese: Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and the sauce has thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
6. Combine All Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and add the drained pasta. Toss to coat everything evenly with the creamy sauce.
7. Taste and Adjust: Add salt and pepper as desired, adjusting the flavors according to your liking.
8. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, then garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

By following these steps, you’ll create a creamy, flavorful pasta dish that will be the star of your dinner table!
